Would you bet on arcade games at Dave & Buster’s? They’re reportedly adding a gambling feature to their app allowing you to bet on their games with your friends! Bet over some Skee-Ball? It could soon be your reality.
Gambling is taking over the country and this is just the latest move demonstrating that. Here’s more on how it’s unfolding.
Bet On Arcade Games At Dave & Buster’s
According to CNBC, customers at Dave & Buster’s can soon place wagers on a Hot Shots basketball game, gamble on some Skee-Ball, or bet on your favorite game. The betting function is reportedly expected to launch in the next few months and will be found on the company’s app.
There are more than 222 Dave & Buster’s locations in North America and business seems to be booming. Now, they’re hoping to keep that trajectory going by letting customers bet on their arcade games. Gambling is really taking off with seemingly everyone participating in some form. Now, companies are getting in on the action and it’s probably a smart move!
According to CNBC, Dave & Buster’s Senior Vice President Of Entertainment and Attractions, Simon Murray, says, “We’re thrilled to work with Lucra to bring this exciting new gaming platform to our customers. This new partnership gives our loyalty members real-time, unrivaled gaming experiences, and reinforces our commitment to continue to elevate our customer experience through innovative, cutting-edge technology.”
This could bring a new group of people into Dave & Buster’s locations who didn’t previously spend time there. You will have to be 18 and up in order to gamble on the games, according to the law. People spend a lot of time and money betting on the NFL, NBA, and MLB and now they’ll have the opportunity to bring that same rush to the arcade. I can see this working and and other companies following suit. What do you think? https://youtu.be/3RjvNcvkVEw?si=eIXegdlqGj6sQ2Oj
5 Extreme Red Bull Sports That Should Be In The Olympics
The Summer Olympics will take place in Paris, France this Summer! Unfortunately, there’s not much to look forward to this year. There aren’t many well-known athletes competing in the games this year. Ratings aren’t expected to be great this time around. However, there is a way to bring a huge amount of viewers to the TV to watch the games. It will just require some changes to the games. Here are 5 extreme Red Bull sports that should be in the Olympics!
These extreme sports will likely not be in the games any time soon. However, if they want good ratings they should definitely add these sports to the lineup.
5 Extreme Red Bull Sports That Should Be In The Olympics
The Paris games kick off Friday, July 26th and it will conclude on August 11th. At the 2024 Paris Games, there will be swimming, archery, rhythm gymnastics, tennis, diving, wrestling, and more. Sound exciting? Yeah, didn’t think so. However, if they added some extreme sports, things would probably be more interesting! Honestly, right now the thing I’m looking forward to seeing the most are cool shots of Paris. It’s a beautiful city. The competition? Not very exciting this time around.
Red Bull Sports have been making waves for a while now. They’ve done some very extreme stuff that has gone viral. Some of the things they’ve done have never been attempted before, and probably never will be again. That’s the kind of activity I want to see at the games! I can watch people swim in any public pool at any time during the summer months. These extreme sports are much harder to find.
Seriously, they should consider doing this. It’s not like they’d struggle to find athletes to compete in the games. There are people doing daring stunts and participating in extreme sports in every country in the world, I imagine. Additionally, people love watching this kind of stuff! It’s time to update the games a little. We need to bring them into the 21st century. How do we do that? Extreme sports. Here are 5 Red Bull sports I’d like to see integrated into the Olympics.
Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
